Protein kinases are enzymatic components of the signal transduction pathways which catalyze the transfer of the terminal phosphate from ATP to the hydroxy group of tyrosine, serine and/or threonine residues of proteins. Thus, compounds which inhibit protein kinase functions are valuable tools for assessing the physiological consequences of protein kinase activation. The overexpression or inappropriate expression of normal or mutant protein kinases in mammals has been a topic of extensive study and has been demonstrated to play a significant role in the development of many diseases, including diabetes, angiogenesis, psoriasis, restenosis, ocular diseases, schizophrenia, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease and cancer. The cardiotonic benefits of kinase inhibition has also been studied. In sum, inhibitors of protein kinases have particular utility in the treatment of human and animal disease.
The Trk family receptor tyrosine kinases, TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC, are the signaling receptors that mediate the biological actions of the peptide hormones of the neurotrophin family. This family of growth factors includes nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and two neurotrophins (NT), NT-3, and NT-4. TrkB serves as a receptor for both BDNF and NT-4. BDNF promotes the proliferation, differentiation and survival of normal neural components such as retinal cells and glial cells.
It has recently been reported (see, Nature 26 Aug. 2004; 430(7003):973-4; 1034-40) that TrkB activation is a potent and specific suppressor of anchorage independent cell death (anoikis). Anchorage independent cell survival allows tumor cells to migrate through the systemic circulation and grow at distant organs. This metastatic process is often responsible for the failure of cancer treatment and the cause of mortality in cancer. Other studies (see, Cancer Lett. 10 Apr. 2003;193(1):109-14) have also suggested that BDNF agonism of TrkB is capable of blocking cisplatin induced cell death. Taken together, these results suggest that TrkB modulation is an attractive target for treatment of benign and malignant proliferative diseases, especially tumor diseases.
The receptor tyrosine kinase c-kit and its ligand Stem Cell Factor (SCF) are essential for hemoatpoiesis, melanogenesis and fertility. SCF acts at multiple levels of the hemoatpoietic hierarchy to promote cell survival, proliferation, differentiation, adhesion and functional activation. It is of particular importance in the mast cell and erythroid lineages, but also acts on multipotential stem and progenitor cells, megakaryocytes, and a subset of lymphoid progenitors (see, Int J Biochem Cell Biol. 1999 October;31(10):1037-51). Sporadic mutations of c-kit as well as autocrine/paracrine activation mechanisms of the SCF/c-kit pathway have been implicated in a variety of malignancies. Activation of c-kit contributes to metastases by enhancing tumor growth and reducing apoptosis. Additionally, c-kit is frequently mutated and activated in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), and ligand-mediated activation of c-kit is present in some lung cancers (see, Leuk Res. 2004 May;28 Suppl 1:S11-20). The c-kit receptor also is expressed on more than 10% of blasts in 64% of de novo acute myelogenous leukemias (AMLs) and 95% of relapsed AMLs. C-kit mediates proliferation and anti-apoptotic effects in AML (see, Curr Hematol Rep. 2005 January;4(1):51-8).
C-Kit expression has been documented in a wide variety of human malignancies, including mastocytosis, mast cell leukemia, gastrointestinal stromal tumour, sinonasal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, seminoma, dysgerminoma, thyroid carcinoma; small-cell lung carcinoma, malignant melanoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, acute myelogenous leukemia, anaplastic large cell lymphoma, angiosarcoma, endometrial carcinoma, pediatric T-cell ALL, lymphoma, breast carcinoma and prostate carcinoma. See, Heinrich, Michael C. et al. Review Article: Inhibition of KIT Tyrosine Kinase Activity: A Novel Molecular Approach to the Treatment of KIT-Positive Malignancies.
The fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) ligand (FLT3L) is one of the cytokines that affects the development of multiple hematopoietic lineages. These effects occur through the binding of FLT3L to the FLT3 receptor, also referred to as fetal liver kinase-2 (flk-2) and STK-1, a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) expressed on hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. The FLT3 gene encodes a membrane-bound RTK that plays an important role in proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of cells during normal hematopoiesis. The FLT3 gene is mainly expressed by early meyloid and lymphoid progenitor cells. See McKenna, Hilary J. et al. Mice lacking FLT3 ligand have deficient hematopoiesis affecting hematopoietic progenitor cells, dendritic cells, and natural killer cells. Blood. June 2000; 95: 3489-3497; Drexler, H. G. and H. Quentmeier (2004). “FLT3: receptor and ligand.” Growth Factors 22(2): 71-3.
The ligand for FLT3 is expressed by the marrow stromal cells and other cells and synergizes with other growth factors to stimulate proliferation of stem cells, progenitor cells, dendritic cells, and natural killer cells.
Hematopoietic disorders are pre-malignant disorders of these systems and include, for instance, the myeloproliferative disorders, such as thrombocythemia, essential thrombocytosis (ET), angiogenic myeloid metaplasia, myelofibrosis (MF), myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM), chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis (IMF), and polycythemia vera (PV), the cytopenias, and pre-malignant myelodysplastic syndromes. See Stirewalt, D. L. and J. P. Radich (2003). “The role of FLT3 in haematopoietic malignancies.” Nat Rev Cancer 3(9): 650-65; Scheijen, B. and J. D. Griffin (2002). “Tyrosine kinase oncogenes in normal hematopoiesis and hematological disease.” Oncogene 21(21): 3314-33.
Hematological malignancies are cancers of the body's blood forming and immune systems, the bone marrow and lymphatic tissues. Whereas in normal bone marrow, FLT3 expression is restricted to early progenitor cells, in hematological malignancies, FLT3 is expressed at high levels or FLT3 mutations cause an uncontrolled induction of the FLT3 receptor and downstream molecular pathway, possibly Ras activation. Hematological malignancies include leukemias, lymphomas (non-Hodgkin's lymphoma), Hodgkin's disease (also called Hodgkin's lymphoma), and myeloma—for instance, acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL), acute undifferentiated leukemia (AUL), anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL), prolymphocytic leukemia (PML), juvenile myelomonocyctic leukemia (JMML), adult T-cell ALL, AML with trilineage myelodysplasia (AML/TMDS), mixed lineage leukemia (MLL), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs), myeloproliferative disorders (MPD), multiple myeloma, (MM) and myeloid sarcoma. See Kottaridis, P. D., R. E. Gale, et al. (2003). “Flt3 mutations and leukaemia.” Br J Haematol 122(4): 523-38. Myeloid sarcoma is also associated with FLT3 mutations. See Ansari-Lari, Ali et al. FLT3 mutations in myeloid sarcoma. British Journal of Haematology. 2004 September 126(6):785-91.
Mutations of FLT3 have been detected in about 30% of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia and a small number of patients with acute lymphomatic leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. Patients with FLT3 mutations tend to have a poor prognosis, with decreased remission times and disease free survival. There are two known types of activating mutations of FLT3. One is a duplication of 4-40 amino acids in the juxtamembrane region (ITD mutation) of the receptor (25-30% of patients) and the other is a point mutation in the kinase domain (5-7% of patients). The mutations most often involve small tandem duplications of amino acids within the juxtamembrane domain of the receptor and result in tyrosine kinase activity. Expression of a mutant FLT3 receptor in murine marrow cells results in a lethal myeloproliferative syndrome, and preliminary studies (Blood. 2002; 100: 1532-42) suggest that mutant FLT3 cooperates with other leukemia oncogenes to confer a more aggressive phenotype.
Taken together, these results suggest that specific inhibitors of the individual kinases FLT3, and/or TrkB and/or c-kit, present an attractive target for the treatment of hematopoietic disorders and hematological malignancies. Accordingly, there exists a need for intermediates useful in the synthesis of such inhibitors, and methods of synthesis thereof.

Definitions
As used herein, the following terms are intended to have the following meanings (additional definitions are provided where needed throughout the Specification):
The term “alkenyl,” whether used alone or as part of a substituent group, for example, “C1-4alkenyl(aryl),” refers to a partially unsaturated branched or straight chain monovalent hydrocarbon radical having at least one carbon—carbon double bond, whereby the double bond is derived by the removal of one hydrogen atom from each of two adjacent carbon atoms of a parent alkyl molecule and the radical is derived by the removal of one hydrogen atom from a single carbon atom. Atoms may be oriented about the double bond in either the cis (Z) or trans (E) conformation. Typical alkenyl radicals include, but are not limited to, ethenyl, propenyl, allyl (2-propenyl), butenyl and the like. Examples include C2-8alkenyl or C2-4alkenyl groups.
The term “Ca-b” (where a and b are integers referring to a designated number of carbon atoms) refers to an alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy or cycloalkyl radical or to the alkyl portion of a radical in which alkyl appears as the prefix root containing from a to b carbon atoms inclusive. For example, C1-4 denotes a radical containing 1, 2, 3 or 4 carbon atoms.
The term “alkyl,” whether used alone or as part of a substituent group, refers to a saturated branched or straight chain monovalent hydrocarbon radical, wherein the radical is derived by the removal of one hydrogen atom from a single carbon atom. Unless specifically indicated (e.g. by the use of a limiting term such as “terminal carbon atom”), substituent variables may be placed on any carbon chain atom. Typical alkyl radicals include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl and the like. Examples include C1-8alkyl, C1-6alkyl and C1-4alkyl groups.
The term “alkylamino” refers to a radical formed by the removal of one hydrogen atom from the nitrogen of an alkylamine, such as butylamine, and the term “dialkylamino” refers to a radical formed by the removal of one hydrogen atom from the nitrogen of a secondary amine, such as dibutylamine. In both cases it is expected that the point of attachment to the rest of the molecule is the nitrogen atom.
The term “alkynyl,” whether used alone or as part of a substituent group, refers to a partially unsaturated branched or straight chain monovalent hydrocarbon radical having at least one carbon-carbon triple bond, whereby the triple bond is derived by the removal of two hydrogen atoms from each of two adjacent carbon atoms of a parent alkyl molecule and the radical is derived by the removal of one hydrogen atom from a single carbon atom. Typical alkynyl radicals include ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl and the like. Examples include C2-8alkynyl or C2-4alkynyl groups.
The term “alkoxy” refers to a saturated or partially unsaturated branched or straight chain monovalent hydrocarbon alcohol radical derived by the removal of the hydrogen atom from the hydroxide oxygen substituent on a parent alkane, alkene or alkyne. Where specific levels of saturation are intended, the nomenclature “alkoxy”, “alkenyloxy” and “alkynyloxy” are used consistent with the definitions of alkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl.

One skilled in the art will recognize that the compounds of Formula C may have one or more asymmetric carbon atoms in their structure. It is intended that the present invention include within its scope single enantiomer forms of the compounds, racemic mixtures, and mixtures of enantiomers in which an enantiomeric excess is present.
The term “single enantiomer” as used herein defines all the possible homochiral forms which the compounds of Formula C and their N-oxides, addition salts, quaternary amines or physiologically functional derivatives may possess.
Stereochemically pure isomeric forms may be obtained by the application of art known principles. Diastereoisomers may be separated by physical separation methods such as fractional crystallization and chromatographic techniques, and enantiomers may be separated from each other by the selective crystallization of the diastereomeric salts with optically active acids or bases or by chiral chromatography. Pure stereoisomers may also be prepared synthetically from appropriate stereochemically pure starting materials, or by using stereoselective reactions.
The term “isomer” refers to compounds that have the same composition and molecular weight but differ in physical and/or chemical properties. Such substances have the same number and kind of atoms but differ in structure. The structural difference may be in constitution (geometric isomers) or in an ability to rotate the plane of polarized light (enantiomers).
The term “stereoisomer” refers to isomers of identical constitution that differ in the arrangement of their atoms in space. Enantiomers and diastereomers are examples of stereoisomers.
The term “chiral” refers to the structural characteristic of a molecule that makes it impossible to superimpose it on its mirror image.
The term “enantiomer” refers to one of a pair of molecular species that are mirror images of each other and are not superimposable.
The term “diastereomer” refers to stereoisomers that are not mirror images.
The symbols “R” and “S” represent the configuration of substituents around a chiral carbon atom(s).
The term “racemate” or “racemic mixture” refers to a composition composed of equimolar quantities of two enantiomeric species, wherein the composition is devoid of optical activity.
The term “homochiral” refers to a state of enantiomeric purity.
The term “optical activity” refers to the degree to which a homochiral molecule or nonracemic mixture of chiral molecules rotates a plane of polarized light.
The term “geometric isomer” refers to isomers that differ in the orientation of substituent atoms in relationship to a carbon-carbon double bond, to a cycloalkyl ring or to a bridged bicyclic system. Substituent atoms (other than H) on each side of a carbon-carbon double bond may be in an E or Z configuration. In the “E” (opposite sided) configuration, the substituents are on opposite sides in relationship to the carbon-carbon double bond; in the “Z” (same sided) configuration, the substituents are oriented on the same side in relationship to the carbon-carbon double bond. Substituent atoms (other than hydrogen) attached to a carbocyclic ring may be in a cis or trans configuration. In the “cis” configuration, the substituents are on the same side in relationship to the plane of the ring; in the “trans” configuration, the substituents are on opposite sides in relationship to the plane of the ring. Compounds having a mixture of “cis” and “trans” species are designated “cis/trans”.
It is to be understood that the various substituent stereoisomers, geometric isomers and mixtures thereof used to prepare compounds of the present invention are either commercially available, can be prepared synthetically from commercially available starting materials or can be prepared as isomeric mixtures and then obtained as resolved isomers using techniques well-known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
The isomeric descriptors “R,” “S,” “E,” “Z,” “cis,” and “trans” are used as described herein for indicating atom configuration(s) relative to a core molecule and are intended to be used as defined in the literature (IUPAC Recommendations for Fundamental Stereochemistry (Section E), Pure Appl. Chem., 1976, 45:13-30).
The compounds of the present invention may be prepared as individual isomers by either isomer-specific synthesis or resolved from an isomeric mixture. Conventional resolution techniques include forming the free base of each isomer of an isomeric pair using an optically active salt (followed by fractional crystallization and regeneration of the free base), forming an ester or amide of each of the isomers of an isomeric pair (followed by chromatographic separation and removal of the chiral auxiliary) or resolving an isomeric mixture of either a starting material or a final product using preparative TLC (thin layer chromatography) or a chiral HPLC column.
Polymorphs and Solvates
Furthermore, compounds of the present invention may have one or more polymorph or amorphous crystalline forms and as such are intended to be included in the scope of the invention. In addition, some of the compounds may form solvates, for example with water (i.e., hydrates) or common organic solvents. As used herein, the term “solvate” means a physical association of a compound of the present invention with one or more solvent molecules. This physical association involves varying degrees of ionic and covalent bonding, including hydrogen bonding. In certain instances the solvate will be capable of isolation, for example when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated in the crystal lattice of the crystalline solid. The term “solvate” is intended to encompass both solution-phase and isolatable solvates. Non-limiting examples of suitable solvates include ethanolates, methanolates, and the like. It is intended that the present invention include within its scope solvates of the compounds of the present invention.

In the first step, treatment of a piperidinyl ester II with a strong base such as lithium hexamethyldisilazide in solvent such as tetrahydrofuran (THF) followed by addition of an appropriate chloroquinazoline/quinoline III at a temperature of −78° C. to 25° C. can provide the substituted piperidine IV. Treatment of IV to decarboxylation conditions, such as LiCl in DMSO/H2O at a temperature of 100° C. to 200° C. or KOH in MeOH at a temperature of 25° C. to 200° C., followed by deprotection of the amine protecting group (PG) under standard conditions known to those skilled in the art can provide piperidine C.

An alternative method to prepare the piperidine intermediate V, wherein X is N and R1 and R2 are defined as in Formula C, is illustrated in Scheme 12. Treatment of isonipecotic acid with an appropriate amino protecting group can provide the N-protected piperidine VII. Transformation of the carboxylic acid to the primary amide and subsequent dehydration under standard conditions can provide the cyano piperidine VIII. Treatment of piperidine VIII with an appropriate aniline IX utilizing a Friedel Crafts reaction with a Lewis acid, such as BF3 Et2O, can provide the substituted aniline X. Formation of the quinazoline ring can be accomplished by treating aniline X with a reagent such as formamide at a temperature of 100° C. to 200° C. and subsequent deprotection of the amino protecting group under standard conditions can provide the desired piperidine C.

A mixture of 5-iodoanthranilic acid (9.96 g, 37.9 mmol) and formamidine acetate (4.20 g, 40.3 mmol) (adapted from J. Org. Chem. 51:616, 1986) in absolute EtOH (80 mL) was refluxed under air for 2 h. The smoky amber solution with heavy white precipitate was then concentrated under reduced pressure at 90° C., and residual protic solvent was removed with toluene rotary evaporation (2×100 mL) at 90° C. The resulting sticky tan solid was treated with a thick white slurry of Vilsmeier-Haack reagent in one portion under air at rt. [The Vilsmeier-Haack reagent was prepared by the addition of a solution of oxalyl chloride (10.9 mL, 125 mmol) in DCE (44 mL) to a solution of DMF (6.7 mL, 87 mmol) in DCE (21 mL) dropwise over 10 min at 0° C. with vigorous stirring. The ice bath was removed immediately following completion of oxalyl chloride addition, and the white slurry was stirred at “rt” for 5 min before transfer to the crude 4-hydroxy-6-iodo-quinazoline intermediate.] The reaction was then refluxed under air (oil bath 110° C.) for 1 h 15 min, and the resulting homogeneous brown solution was allowed to cool to rt, at which point a heavy precipitate formed. The reaction was poured into ice water (300 mL) and extracted with DCM (3×250 mL). The opaque organic layers were combined, dried (Na2SO4), and filtered to provide a clear red amber filtrate. Concentration under reduced pressure, followed by toluene rotary evaporation at 90° C. to remove potentially reactive volatiles, afforded the title compound as a tan powder (8.41 g, 94% from iodoanthranilic acid) suitable for treatment with LiHMDS in the next step. 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 9.07 (s, 1H), 8.67 (dd, 1H), 8.22 (dd, 1H), 7.81 (d, 1H).

A mixture of 4-(6-iodo-quinazolin-4-yl)-piperidine-1,4-dicarboxylic acid 1-tert-butyl ester 4-methyl ester (14.21 g, 28.6 mmol), prepared as described in the preceding step, LiCl (2.38 g, 56.1 mmol), water (1.54 mL, 85.8 mmol), and DMSO (14 mL) was stirred at 150° C. under air for 3 h in a 500 mL flask fitted with a lightly capped Liebig condenser to minimize loss of reagent water while allowing gas escape. The reaction was then allowed to cool to rt, 2 M HCl (aq) (100 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 10 min (Caution: Gas evolution). The reaction was cooled on an ice bath, 2.5 M NaOH (100 mL) was added, and the reaction was extracted with DCM (1×250 mL and 1×50 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated to provide a 60:40 mixture of the title compound and its methyl ester, contaminated with DMSO, as a dark green oil (10.5 g). This material was resubjected to Krapchow decarboxylation conditions using LiCl (2.41 g, 63 mmol), water (1.54 mL, 85.8 mmol), and DMSO (4 mL) (˜7 mL total DMSO) for an additional 5 h at 150° C.
